Dental Stone materials are essential in dental laboratories for creating precise models, prosthetics, and restorations.
We offer two types:
Type 3: Hard Dental Stone
- Applications: Suitable for general dental models, orthodontic models, and prosthetic bases.
- Features: Provides a balance between strength and ease of use, making it ideal for routine procedures.
Type 4: Super Hard Dental Stone
- Applications: Designed for detailed dental work, such as crowns, bridges, and implant models.
- Features: Offers superior strength and minimal expansion, ensuring high precision and durability.

🛠️ Usage Guidelines
- Measure the appropriate amount of water and pour it into a clean mixing bowl.
- Gradually add the dental stone powder to the water.
- Mix vigorously for the recommended time until a smooth, homogeneous mixture is achieved.
- Pour the mixture into the mold or impression tray.
- Allow the material to set for the specified setting time.
- Carefully remove the set model and proceed with the necessary procedures.
📦 Packaging and Storage
- Packaging: Available in 1kg, 5kg, and 25kg bags.
- Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C. Keep the container tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption.
- Shelf Life: 2 years from the date of manufacture.
